Hi,

I was replacing the bulb in my trunk yesterday and I believe I blew a fuse. (Well I hope that's all it is.) When I put the bulb in it lit up right away, but then it went out and wouldn't come back on. I started my car this morning and not only is the trunk light out, but the navigation unit in my car isn't powering on, nor is the light in my glovebox. I would like to know how much its going to cost to fix/replace the fuse. I'd also like to know if its better to take the car in and have it repaired or if it's something I can do myself.

Thanks,

T. Seward

The dealer would probably be glad to change that fuse for you. It might cost you a couple dollars, no big deal, right?
